It's a chicken and egg issue. Nobody will create content on a platform with inferior usability.

Hard to capture that lightning

It's a chicken and egg issue for sure, but I think you've got the wrong egg.

Nobody will create content on a platform with few viewers. Nobody will be a viewer on a platform with few content creators.

Is the egg not income or does peer tube pay creators now?

Income and viewers are the same egg. You can put up sponsor segments but they're no good if nobody is watching.

That is a good point. Sponsors are the only way to make money on the decentralized networks.
